Transfer balls: Manchester United await Paul Pogba as Juventus get a new number 10
It’s been 15 days since the Daily Mirror said Manchester United had signed Paul Pogba. Today the Manchester Evening Post reports that “Paul Pogba is still a Juventus player”.
The paper adds: “Manchester United want to sign the France international before the Premier League season starts.”
The Telegraph says Pogba “is expected to sign” for Manchester United. The paper of record then states: “The Manchester Evening News believe Paul Pogba is officially a Manchester United player.” No, they don’t. The MEN says he is expected to sign.
The Mirror says, “The Frenchman is expected to complete the world record transfer form Juventus to Old Trafford before the Premier League season starts.”
The Mirror then adds: “Twitter reactions to Paul Pogba leaving Man United in 2012 now look a little silly.”
Sillier than the Mirror which reported 15 days ago:
Total balls.
But Pogba surely is leaving Juventus. AS reports that Pogba’s number 10 shirt at Juve is to be worn by Dybala.
Such are the facts.
